"Doctor Sleep" undoubtedly rounds the story of The Shining, but it rounds up Stephen King's "The Shining". Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining" does not need any extension of the plot. Stanley took a fancy to Stephen's novel and borrowed him the background of the novel to tell their own story. When the film was released that year, Stephen King was also quite dissatisfied with the changes in the film. The movie was even nominated for the Golden Strawberry Award, but with the changing times, the audience's views on the movie "The Shining" have evolved, seeing more of the hidden messages in the movie, and gradually it has become a classic in the hearts of fans. "Doctor Sleeping" restores the basic steps, takes back the story of the novel, and has a big confrontation between good and evil. Two and a half hours seems to be a long time, but the rhythm is quite lively. There are also quite a lot of tribute scenes and scenes from "The Shining". Standard Hollywood movie. The theme that runs through the film is death, and in the face of death, two things need to be overcome. One is fear. What people fear is not death, but the fear of nothing after death. The second is pain. People are afraid of the feeling of pain, so they choose to escape, not to think about the past, and to stay away from pain. To break through fear and pain is easier said than done, but to face it bravely. Facing fear and pain may not help you solve the real problem, but it can help you break through the long-standing psychological barrier.
